Must be quite challenging to pedal it w/o pedals, eh?


My bike, all-in, probably weighs around 20-ish lbs or so. I honestly don't know.
I honestly don't care.

Weight is nearly irrelevant, especially for a tri bike.
It's not how much it weighs, it's how fast it goes w/ you on it.
I see a timer at every race - I have yet to see a scale.

And even more importantly - it's how fast you can run after having ridden it.

I'd agree with you that weight is irrelevant for most triathlons but when I did silverman, my 23lber kicked my butt. I'm sure I and my legs would have been much happier with a lighter bike.

I have to second what Murphy'sLaw said but just for the record, I have an 04 or 05 QR Tequilo, HED3 clinchers, Pro Race 2s of course ( would love to try the Bonty Aero ones though), PD cobra wing, PD aero bottle and mostly Ultegra SL and DA mixed stuff, plus flat wing (I think) and tubes/tools and it comes in somewhere in the 22-23 lb range (without filled bottles which would add another 4-5 lbs I think). On a hilly or flat course I'll spank most people. Won't beat any pros to the line, but I also train about a quarter as much so I think you can completely take weight out of any real worry. Plus, in addition to my heavy ass bike, my 175 lb heavy ass should make me slow as well. I know it's been reiterated about a billion times, but in anything other than a mountain race, weight will play a fantastically small role. It's not that it doesn't matter, but it doesn't matter a whole lot. Aero and MOST especially your position (well I guess most especially would be your training) are what will play the biggest roles.

That's not fun advice though as you can't generally buy a training +2 module. Oooooh, me thinks we have a new marketing scheme. Sort of the DnD of tri.

True, but who is riding their tri bike up l'Alpe d'Huez? For that most people are using a road bike.

A good question about this topic is: how are you weighing your bike? Please don't say that you are using a bathroom scale as they are really all over the place when it comes to accuracy. I'd like to weigh my high end Cervelo P3C, but I'm not sure how to do it. Another good question is how much per pound did that thing cost you? I think that high end bikes are like Ladies underwear, the less you get the more they cost. Tim

Just out of curiousity, how do people weigh their bikes. Do you all have special scales?

I tried stepping on a floor scale both holding the bike and without but the accuracy and precision leave much to be desired
